The first draft explains the scope of SVG 1.1 and SVG 2.0. SVG 1.1, it
says, will "include a modularized version of SVG 1.0, and new features driven
by the requirements of an SVG profile for mobile devices." Its development
will be pursued in parallel with several SVG profiles, similar to those used
in SMIL 2.0. The draft states as examples full SVG, SVG tiny, SVG basic, and
possible an printing profile. SVG 2.0 will obviously incorporate all of SVG
1.1 and more advanced features such as: intra-shape text flowing and
justification; a broader range of compositing operations, gradients, stroke
and join styles; and z-index control.

The mobile draft has been written in response to "industry demand,
overwhelming support in the SVG working group and requests from the SVG
developer community." It gives usage scenarios such as mapping, animated
picture messaging, industrial applications such as viewing engineering plans,
and user interfaces. The requirements are defined with respect to the upcoming
SVG 1.1, and as "must-haves" includes animation, interaction, embedded
metadata and internationalization.
